SnowPack® dry ice machine
- Ideal cooling media for sample transport
- Performance depends on room temperature and pressure
Detailed information
SnowPack® enables you to obtain a -79 °C (-110.2 °F) dry ice tablet weighing 50 or 250 g (1.76 or 8.82 oz.) within a few moments, without complicated technology and without electricity! You can therefore obtain low-cost cooling to very low temperatures at any time you like.
Dry ice is easy to handle, odorless and flavorless. The SnowPack® dry ice machine can be installed on any commercial CO2-bottle with a standpipe (without pressure regulator) (thread W 21.80 x 1/14" according to DIN 477-1 No. 6). These often exist in many production facilities and laboratories anyway. If this is not the case, a bottle can be rented for a small price from a local specialist gas distributor.
Typical application area of the product
SnowPack® is often used in hospitals, universities, schools, institutes, laboratories, in the chemical industry and in materials testing facilities.
Examples of use: Lowering the temperature in cooling baths or cold traps, pre-cooling tissue samples, ensuring safe transport or embedding biological substances, freezing blood and tissue samples, studies in chemistry, physics and materials technology, etc.
